Founders Award Went To Brian Robbins Of Columbus, NJ
During its recent annual membership dinner-meeting held in
Oshkosh, WI, the Society of Aviation and Flight Educators (SAFE)
presented several awards to its members. According to SAFE Chair
Doug Stewart, "It is vital for volunteer organizations to
acknowledge the time and effort invested by their members." He
added, "SAFE Awards recognize outstanding or unique contributions
to the growth and promotion of our organization in particular, or
to the broader aviation community as a whole."
Master Instructor Brian Robbins of Columbus, NJ, who epitomizes
the concept of selfless service by contributing way above and
beyond the “call of duty”, received the 2010 Founders
Award "in recognition for selfless service in support of the
Mission and Vision of the Society of Aviation and Flight
Educators". Robbins serves as SAFE's Membership Database
Manager.
Master Instructor Pat Knight of Naperville, IL received the 2010
Service Award "in recognition for outstanding contribution and
selfless service to the Society of Aviation and Flight Educators".
